The Disappearance of Kimberly McAndrew
Episode 117
Nineteen year old Kimberly McAndrew was excited for the night. After a shift at work she'd be going to a local festival with her sister, her sister's boyfriend and her own boyfriend to celebrate his birthday. Much to her excitement, her boss let her off work forty minutes early but moments after exiting the store Kim vanished.
For thirty years her family and investigators have tried to determine what might have happened to her. The investigation led towards a terrifying set of suspects including an obsessed older man and an alleged serial killer.
